"So, Anakin, you're saying you violated the Jedi Code, married, and are about to have a child with your wife, and that you've been having visions about her dying in childbirth, and that you want Jedi Healers on standby to help her through this potentially troubled birth?"

"Yes, Obi-Wan, that sums up everything quite nicely."

"I always knew you had a talent for getting into trouble, but, even for you, this is ridiculous, Anakin. A wife? Really? If you wanted that, you should have convinced her to move to Corellia. They always did think the rules were more like guidelines anyway."

"Huh, you know, that guy in my dream said the exact same thing."

"..." Obi-Wan slowly pinches the bridge of his nose as he ponders just what his apprentice meant by such a statement.

"Anakin, what guy?"

"Huh? Oh, I had a dream where I ran into this stranger on a battlefield who introduced me to the concept of self-fulfilling prophecies."

"You hadn't run into that before? Not in any of the Jedi literature or wise Masters who speak of seeing into the future?"

"Not in so many words and not in one of the books I did bother to read."

"Anakin, why do you think Yoda, myself, and many others have said that 'wary of the future, you should be. Always in motion, it is.'"

"Talented, you are Obi-wan. As a Jedi and a comedian. Have a back-up career, you surely do. Need it, you might."

"Uhh, hello Master Yoda. How much of that did you overhear?"

"Enough to know that a long talk with Skywalker, the Council must have."

"I've got a really bad feeling about this."

"Me too, Anakin. Me too."


"You know Anakin, I never would have thought the Council would have been so lenient with someone who broke the Jedi Code so flagrantly."

"Yeah, apparently, being one of the most popular Jedi in a war where some of the Jedi are starting to be viewed very badly because we 'couldn't stop it from happening' and winning many of the battles I've been involved with has worked out for me. Who would have thought that the Jedi would cave to the public because they feared the outrage that might happen by casting me out in the middle of this terrible war?"

"You know you can't possibly be a Jedi after this war is over though. Nothing will be the same as it was."

"Ehh, at this point, so long as Padme survives, I don't care."

"Good for you, Anakin, that's a very mature outlook."

"Plus, I can always join the Green Jedi and have all new sorts of adventures. Maybe even become a pirate."

"And he's back. Good to see you haven't changed that much, my old Padawan. Now, given how Yoda has been dropping hints about me becoming a comedian, maybe I should follow you to Corellia. To make sure I'm still around to keep your skin in one piece."

"Master, how many times have I saved you? Wouldn't it be the other way round?"

"No, because this would be a new planet and new standards would apply. This time, I will be the one saving you."

"Well, you will try."

"Do or do not. There is no try."

"Obi-Wan, you know Yoda has been making hints about you being a comedian for some time now. Why are you antagonizing him more?"

"What are you talking about Anakin? I didn't say anything."

"Well, if I didn't say anything, and you didn't say anything, who just did that Yoda impression?"

"Oblivious, you are. Walked into my meditation chamber, you did."

"OH! Hello, Master Yoda! We, uh, were just leaving" said Obi-Wan belatedly.

"Yes we were. We'll get out from under your feet."

"Appreciate it, I do, as will your new Grandmaster on Corellia, Obi-Wan. Informed him, I have, that signed up for comedy lessons, you should be."

"Thank you Master Yoda, you're too kind."

"Know this, I do. Now, OUT!"

"YES MASTER YODA!" the duo said in unison.


And this is what lead to Obi-Wan and Anakin being relocated to Corellia. Eventually. Whenever the muse strikes and lets me continue this.

AN: For once, I didn't have a story idea come to me in the middle of the night. Huzzah!
